In keeping up with the Joneses, a much too ambitious son schedules a meeting with a loan officer and creates a helter-skelter that spooks his mother and hastens her death. In the aftermath, he makes a phone call to the notary and discovers that he has been left out of his mother's will. Against family tradition, the matriarch leaves a last will and testament that folks call "Mama's Will, The Chicken That Sees."
